Research Analysis
Methodology & Findings

## Forest Hills Retina Center Likely Uses Epic's MyChart Through NewYork-Presbyterian's Connect Portal While the official website for Forest Hills Retina Center (foresthillsretina.com) does not explicitly name its patient portal or EHR system, evidence suggests that the center likely utilizes Epic's MyChart patient portal, branded as "Connect" through its affiliation with NewYork-Presbyterian. Dr. Alan I. Uliss, a physician associated with Forest Hills Retina Center, is listed as a NewYork-Presbyterian doctor in Forest Hills, and information for his patients directs them to the Connect Patient Portal. Multiple sources confirm that the Connect Patient Portal is the official patient portal for NewYork-Presbyterian, Columbia University Irving Medical Center, and Weill Cornell Medicine. Furthermore, these sources explicitly state that the Connect portal is powered by the Epic electronic medical record system. The login page for the Connect portal also displays the "MyChart is Epic logo," indicating that "Connect" is the branding used by NewYork-Presbyterian for their Epic MyChart portal. Given theΰ₯ΰ€Ήaffiliation of a key physician with NewYork-Presbyterian and the clear indication that NewYork-Presbyterian uses the Epic-based Connect (MyChart) portal, it is highly probable that patients of Forest Hills Retina Center access their health information and manage appointments through the NewYork-Presbyterian Connect Patient Portal, which is powered by Epic.
